ABSTRACT:
An axial cylinder machine includes a shaft, journaled in one end of a housing to turn about its axis and a plurality of cylinders. A spider is mounted inside the housing by means of a main swivel connection to swivel about a center which is disposed along the shaft axis and the spider includes a plurality of arms, one for each cylinder, projecting generally radially from the center with one projecting in under each cylinder. Each cylinder includes a rod, one end of which swivels on the piston sliding in the cylinder and the other end of which is connected by a swivel connection to the outer end of the associated arm of the spider. As a result, the spider swivels with a generally circular motion about its center when the pistons are successively reciprocated or vice versa. The main swivel connection comprises a stationary shallow cone facing upwardly and engaged by a downwardly facing shallow cone carried by the spider. The axes of the cylinders are inclined to lie on the surface of an imaginary cone which has its apex adjacent the shaft and its base adjacent the cylinders.
